Door Hinge Replacement in Singapore
Door hinge replacement starts from $70 in labour at SG QuickFix, with the new hinges charged separately. Bent, rusted or worn hinges are replaced with matching ones and the door is rehung square, usually in 30 to 60 minutes. Loose hinges that are otherwise sound can often be re-fixed instead, which costs less.

Task guide
When this may be needed
- A hinge is bent after the door was forced or caught by wind.
- The hinge pin is worn, so the door rocks on its hinges.
- Hinges have rusted, especially on bathroom and service-yard doors.
- The hinges squeak even after lubricating.
- A heavy door needs stronger hinges than the ones fitted.
What the team does
The technician checks every hinge on the door, because a single failed hinge usually means the others are under strain. The door is supported while the old hinges are removed. New hinges of the same size are fitted into the existing recesses, so no new cutting is needed, and the screws go into solid timber. The door is then adjusted, rehung and tested so it swings freely and closes square.
Included in this price
- Inspection of all hinges on the door
- Removal of the worn hinges
- Fitting new hinges in the existing recesses
- Rehanging, adjusting and testing the door
Limits & price factors
The hinges are charged on top of the labour price. Cutting new recesses for a different hinge size, frame repairs and repainting are not included.
The price covers standard butt hinges on one door. Heavy doors that need ball-bearing or extra hinges, hinges that need new recesses, and stripped screw holes that must be filled first take longer. Hinges can be supplied, or you can buy matching ones in advance.
FAQs
If the hinges are the same age and type, replacing them as a set gives the door even support. A single damaged hinge can be replaced on its own if the others are sound.
A dry hinge pin is the usual cause, and lubricating it may be enough. A hinge that still squeaks or has a worn pin should be replaced.
A hinge of the same size and type as the old one, so it fits the existing recesses. Stainless steel resists rust on bathroom and service-yard doors.
Usually 30 to 60 minutes for one door.
